<div dir="ltr">NBNco have not started the whole cut copper and migrate over, just new installs. So Simon's idea would cost shift money from NBNCo to the RSP, but make actually migrating people far more complex, time consuming and difficult for the 8million or so PSTN services still out there (plus/minus a few million, but still significant). I'd suggest it's a great idea for post-implementation, but for the upcoming phase, I actually think it's something that'll make the RSP/NBNCo effort much harder, more costly and more fraught with failure. <div>

<pre>Hi All,
If you haven't already seen it, here's a link to Simon's thought
provoking and challenging presentation at Comms Day. Is NBNCo doing it
too hard, too complex and too expensive?
